I think Yankees fans should not be allowed to marry.
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 02:42 PM by Atman
They're obviously sickos. Now, you people in New York, you do whatever you want. But I live in Eastern Connecticut, and we don't approve of those types around here.

2. Well, we should pass a law in CT that if they get married in NY, their marriage
is not recognized in CT...it's all about states rights, you know.

5. Won't somebody please think of the children?
On the first day of school a first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a Yankees fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Yankees fans.

Wanting to impress their teacher, everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl.

The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, "Janie, why didn't you raise your hand?"

"Because I'm not a Yankees fan," she replied.

The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a Yankees fan, then who are you a fan of?"

"I am a Red Sox fan, and proud of it," Janie replied.

The teacher could not believe her ears. "Janie, why pray tell are you a Red Sox fan?"

"Because my mom is a Red Sox fan, and my dad is Red Sox fan, so I'm a Red Sox fan too!"

"Well," said the teacher in a obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason for you to be a Red Sox fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time. What if your mom were an idiot and your dad were a moron, what would you be then?"

"Then," Janie smiled, "I'd be a Yankees fan."

9. In weddings involving two fans of AL clubs
the wife should be permitted to select a Designated Husband, other than the one who started the marriage, to accompany her on the honeymoon.

20. The Yankees are bums.
They have an all-star team put together by raiding the rest of the league, then they only make the series once in seven years.

Overpaid, crybaby bums in the purest sense of the word.

Fortunately for them, they were married in MD, not CT, home of "Prop -27". :-)

30. Personally I favor forced sterlization.
Maybe even castration (and I don't mean chemically).

They should also be tracked just like sex offenders are and be blinded & lobotomized. They should have all their assets confiscated and be deported as well.

If the above measures don't curb their ignorant arrogance we may need to get serious.
